Yo,
So i have a problem, instalation went well.

When i wanted to launch the game, i got windows information that application stop responding.

I read on the net that you should reinstall net framework, and i did, then it told me that i am missing msvcr110.dll.

Funny thing is that i have in sys 64 folder but didn't have it in system 32. Copied it to system 32 folder.

Now i get another error : application didn't launch correctly 0xc000007b.

I tried using depedency walker but it didn't solved anything

Got info that i am missing the following dlls

API-MS-WIN-CORE-COM-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-ERROR-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-ROBUFFER-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-STRING-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-SHCORE-SCALING-L1-1-0.DLL
DCOMP.DLL
IESHIMS.DLL

But that is insane since IESHIMS is internet explorer dll, so wtf that has to do with witcher lol.

Cheers,

I hope anyone can help me here

I have the same problem here.
I tried to uninstall C++ and .NET framework. I also tried to reinstall DX11, but no luck here.
Same problem here. I tried to uninstall both C++,.NET Framework and DX11 but no luck. I'm seriously deloused about this (and about the lack of answers on the web).

Hi guys, problem solved, for me (I hope it will be useful to you too)

Go to C:\GOG Games\The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt\__redist (or whatever your installation folder is)

enter in the MSVC2012_x64 folder and find vcredist_x64.exe, execute it and "repair" your installation.

After this, go back and enter in DirectX folder, find DXSETUP.exe, execute it and reinstall DirectX

After this, my game launched (finally)

Good luck, guys!

Are you running the game from the GOG-client or via a desktop/startmenu icon of the game itself? Either way, try running either GoG or the game in administrator mode, by right-clicking the icon and click "run as administrator". Perhaps that will help.

If it still doesn't help, the following:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929833/use-the-system-file-checker-tool-to-repair-missing-or-corrupted-system

IF that still doesn't help, then I'm at a loss too :/
i solved it
if everything else havent worked for you download "Dependency Walker"
run it
go to the witcher 3 exe and drop it in the opened box
this will scan for the probematic dll, the one that is lined red is the problem
find the dll your missing/is broken and drop it in the C:/Windows/System32 and SystemWoW64

for me it was IEShims.dll and after that another problem appeared
had the wrong version of msvcr120.dll installed
